Ingredients
Scale
- 1 medium sweet onion chopped
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 pound ground chicken breast
- 1 bottle Rao’s Tomato Basil sauce (24-ounce size)
- 3 cups baby spinach leaves
- 1 Tbsp oregano
- 1 tsp chili akes (or to taste)
- 1 cup cauliower rice (I used frozen organic from @traderjoes
- 1/2 cup steamed broccoli 🥦 (see my blog for the best way to cook!)
Instructions
- Pour olive oil into large pot/saucepan on medium heat. Sauté onions until they are browned. (I love the caramelized onion flavor so I cook them awhile!)
- Add ground chicken and break apart/cook until all pink is gone and it is just about cooked through (about 4-5 mins if fresh, longer if you start with frozen, which I often do.)
- Add in the sauce.
- Add in spinach and stir until it wilts into the sauce.
- Add oregano and chili flakes to taste.
- Simmer on low for at least 20 minutes ( I sometimes do 30-40 minutes or make earlier in the day then reheat for dinner. This blends all the flavors together and helps develop a richer taste as some of the water evaporates.)
- In a separate pot or pan warm up or cook cauliflower rice. I use olive oil spray so it doesn’t stick. Both fresh and frozen only need 3-5 minutes to cook.
- Steam broccoli. (Recipe on my blog under “Simple Solutions”.)
- Layer sauce and broccoli over cauliflower rice and enjoy! Top with grated Parmesan as desired. (My husband enjoyed his over whole wheat pasta. You can use zoodles too!)
